I build rootfs for RPI Zero W
Yocto build started fail after commit [“meta-mender-raspberrypi: Adjust to U-Boot 2025.04”](https://github.com/mendersoftware/meta-mender-community/commit/0bc7f548371535cdd9a871201df85fa9decdb3a2)
The problem is in the **openembedded-core** there is no U-Boot 2025.04 on the branch **scarthgap**
So patch fails trying to patch U-Boot-2024.01 by patch for 2025.04

Hi @mark-berner,
Thanks for reaching out! The Raspberry Pi builds in `meta-mender-community` depend on `meta-lts-mixins` to provide a more up-to-date version of `u-boot`. See [meta-mender-community/kas/include/raspberrypi.yml at 6898594833c6c2836d74a3d96d16ffa7ab05a368 · mendersoftware/meta-mender-community · GitHub](https://github.com/mendersoftware/meta-mender-community/blob/6898594833c6c2836d74a3d96d16ffa7ab05a368/kas/include/raspberrypi.yml#L9).
After adding that layer/branch on the given revision, the patches should apply.
Greetz,
Josef

Adding **meta-lts-mixing** didn’t help, sure I do simething wrong
Is it right set of repos should I download ?

Hi @mark-berner,
That looks a bit strange, but at least at first glance should probably work. In any case, can you try to build using the provided `kas` configuration ([meta-mender-community/kas/raspberrypi0-wifi.yml at scarthgap · mendersoftware/meta-mender-community · GitHub](https://github.com/mendersoftware/meta-mender-community/blob/scarthgap/kas/raspberrypi0-wifi.yml))? It’s there for exactly that reason, being able to have a reproducible build setup. The last weekly build a couple of days was successful, see [build\_boards · mendersoftware/meta-mender-community@6898594 · GitHub](https://github.com/mendersoftware/meta-mender-community/actions/runs/16384074434/job/46300715823).
Greetz,
Josef

Actualy I don’t use **kas**. Is it must for now using **kas**?

@mark-berner well, its not a must. But it would definitely help in understanding where the problem is. As I said, its purpose is providing a reproducible build with known good versions.

I have complex dockerized build, and migrate to kas will take a time, but just taking from kas dependencies valid commit SHA, did solve the problem
Thanks a lot for help.

Hi @mark-berner,
Thanks, I consider the topic solved then. Just for future reference, `kas` also supports containerized builds: [Building in a Container — kas 4.8.1 documentation](https://kas.readthedocs.io/en/latest/userguide/kas-container.html)
